介绍（中）	1789 年的革命和随后拿破仑的崛起，首先是执政官（1799-1804 年），然后是皇帝（1804-14 年），给法国枪支的设计和装饰带来了巨大的变化。主要创新者是尼古拉斯·诺埃尔·布特（Nicholas Noël Boutet，1761-1833 年），他于 1792 年被任命为新成立的凡尔赛武器制造厂的指导兼艺术家。虽然凡尔赛工厂是法国军队管制武器的主要生产商，但布泰还负责制造装饰华丽的武器，以赠送给军事英雄和外国国家元首。这一时期的枪支，如图示的步枪，显示出无与伦比的技术完美和工艺精度。与旧制度相关的精致洛可可风格被放弃，取而代之的是帝国风格的更男性化的古典主义，其参考了希腊罗马和埃及图案。枪托上镶嵌着雕刻的银片和金板，坐骑通常是粗体浮雕的重银铸件。装饰包括武器奖杯和古典战斗和胜利的场景，暗示了法国的军事荣耀。这种类型的套壳是Boutet制表厂最豪华的产品之一。它包括一支装饰华丽的步枪、匹配的手枪以及装卸武器或拆卸武器以进行清洁或维护所需的全套工具和配件。
介绍（英）	The Revolution of 1789 and the subsequent rise of Napoleon, first as consul (1799–1804) and then as emperor (1804–14), brought about a dramatic change in the design and decoration of French firearms. The principal innovator was Nicholas Noël Boutet (1761–1833), who was named directeur-artiste of the newly formed Versailles Arms Manufactory in 1792. While the Versailles factory was the principal producer of regulation weapons for the French armies, Boutet was also charged with creating richly decorated arms for presentation to military heroes and foreign heads of state. Firearms of this period, like the rifle illustrated, show an unequaled technical perfection and precision of workmanship. The delicate Rococo style associated with the ancien régime was abandoned and replaced by the more masculine classicism of the Empire style with its references to Greco-Roman and Egyptian motifs. Gunstocks were inlaid with engraved sheet silver and gold, and the mounts were often of heavy silver cast in bold relief. The decoration included trophies of arms and scenes of classical battles and victories that implied France's military glory. A cased set of this type was among the most luxurious offerings of the Boutet Manufactory. It includes a lavishly decorated rifle, matching pistols, and a full array of tools and accessories necessary to load and unload the weapons or to disassemble them for cleaning or maintenance.
